Got a medical question? Let me stretch my brain.

There are 5 crucial questions to ask when you are playing with thoughts of oral cancers:

Bleeds? (mouth, nasal)
Skin changes? (in the mouth, around the mouth)
Throat/ear pain?
Obstructions?
Voice changes?
Enlarged lymph nodes?

Well that's six, but really two of them fit together in my mind. And of course, answering yes to these doesn't mean cancer (a sinus infection could have you answering yes to 5 of them), but it does sharpen your focus.
